Nicole Kidman had finished filming Practical Magic 2, her anticipated sequel costarring Sandra Bullock, just weeks before news of her separation from Keith Urban, her husband of 19 years.
On Saturday, Sept. 13, Kidman announced on Instagram that the follow-up to the 1998 fantasy film had officially finished filming — and shared what appears to be a behind-the-scenes set clip.
“That’s a wrap on #PracticalMagic2! Thank you to the cast & crew for all your magic,” wrote Kidman, 58, alongside a video of herself and Bullock. The footage showed the actresses — who are reprising their roles as sisters (and witches) Gillian and Sally Owens — laughing and embracing.
On Monday, Sept 29, PEOPLE confirmed that the Oscar-winning actress and the country singer, 57, have split. “Nicole’s sister [Antonia] has been a rock, and the entire Kidman family has come together to support one another,” a source shared.
“She didn’t want this,” added the source. “She has been fighting to save the marriage.”

TMZ was first to report news of the breakup, citing sources who said the pair have been living apart since the beginning of the summer.
The longtime couple married in June 2006 and share daughters Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14. Kidman was previously married to Tom Cruise.
Under Kidman’s Practical Magic 2 post, fans in the comments expressed excitement about the forthcoming sequel to the witchy cult classic — which was based on the 1995 Alice Hoffman novel of the same name — while others seemed astonished that filming for the movie has already finished.
Less than two months earlier, Kidman first announced her and Bullock’s first day on the set of the sequel in a similar fashion.
On July 18, the actress posted behind-the-scenes footage of herself and her onscreen sister, 61, hugging and smiling widely on the set of the film. In the caption, Kidman wrote: “The witches are back. Owens sisters’ first day on set! #PracticalMagic.”
The original film follows the sister duo as they fight off a curse that kills the men they fall in love with. Stockard Channing and Dianne Wiest starred as their on-screen aunts, parts they will be reprising in the long-awaited sequel.
Last summer, original producer Denise Di Novi — who is on the Practical Magic 2 producing team, along with Kidman and Bullock — told Entertainment Weekly that the sequel will adapt the story of The Book of Magic, Hoffman’s 2021 follow-up novel and the fourth in the Practical Magic book series.

Speaking with PEOPLE in August 2024, the producer said that the forthcoming sequel will aim to keep the spirit of the original while still offering something new for fans. “I think the big mistake people make with sequels,” Di Novi said at the time, “is when they kind of want to reinvent the wheel and be totally original and surprise people that it’s different or whatever.”
That spirit of sisterhood was alive and well on the set of the sequel, according to Kidman. In August, the star told PEOPLE that she and Bullock have such a close bond that they are “like sisters.”
“I can tease her, and she teases me,” Kidman said at the time, describing the duo’s dynamic as “insane.”
The Babygirl star also said the actresses can hardly believe they were back in the Practical Magic world again, 27 years later. “We’re both like, ‘What?’ But we were just right back into it,” Kidman told PEOPLE, adding of Bullock: “I adore her and she is so funny and so lovable. And we’re just having the best time together.”
